Harmanpreet Kaur is expected to return and assume the captaincy duties in the match against RCB. The star player missed the last game against UP Warriorz due to a niggle. The English all-rounder Nat Sciver-Brunt led the side in her absence. Shabnim Ismail is also expected to return to the playing XI after missing the last game for the same reason as Kaur. MI lost the match by seven wickets.
The Bengaluru leg of the tournament is nearing its end and the RCB fans have come in huge numbers to support their team. The crowd and cheering have been unmatchable for a women's cricket match for a long time and Saturday being the RCB's last home game at M Chinnaswamy Stadium, a huge crowd is expected for the match.
Mandhana, Sophie Devine and Sabbhineni Meghana are in sublime form and they will be eyeing to continue that in the next match as well. Star all-rounder Ellyse Perry was benched in the last game which resulted in RCB's loss by 25 runs against DC. She may return to the playing XI on Saturday.
